Multimodality imaging in the diagnosis and management of prosthetic valve endocarditis: A contemporary narrative review.
Review in World journal of cardiology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 17 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Infective endocarditis is one of the leading life-threatening infections around the world. With the exponential growth in the field of transcatheter interventions and advances in specialized surgical techniques, the number of prosthetic valves and cardiac implantable devices has significantly increased. This has led to a steep rise in the number of cases of prosthetic valve endocarditis (PVE) comprising up to 30% of all cases. Clinical guidelines rely on the use of the modified Duke criteria; however, the diagnostic sensitivity of the modified Duke criteria is reduced in the context of PVE. This is in part attributed to prosthesis related artifact which greatly affects the ability of echocardiography to detect early infective changes related to PVE in certain cases. There has been increasing recognition of the roles of complementary imaging modalities and updates in international society recommendations. Prompt diagnosis and treatment can prevent the devastating consequences of this condition. Imaging modalities such as cardiac computed tomography and
